Thread: birth lookups please

Hi



I am looking for the following births



Derek Taylor, Born 21 April 1935, died April 1991, I got the birth date from a death entry on ancestry but cant find the birth record, need to order cert.



Also, Leslie Louis/Lewis Taylor born 22 July 1934.



Both would have been born in East London, around the hackney area



Would be grateful if anyone has the time to have a look for me



Thank you

Hi,



There's a Derek L Taylor registered in Hackney, details-: Apr-Jun quarter 1935 vol 1b page 567. Mother's maiden name Penn.



And Leslie L Taylor reg. Hackney, details-:Jul-Sept. quarter 1934 vol 1b page 568. Mother's maiden name Nathan.



Hope these are yours. Good luck

I am very stupid!!! It was actually peggy mothers maiden name nathan born in 1931. She is definitely peggy, not margaret I checked with her. Leslie I already had, I am so sorry for wasting your time.



Not sure about Derek, he is a mystery, he was definitely born, I met hhim!!! tee hee!!

Hi Kirstie,



Births Jul-Sept 1931, Peggy Taylor Edmonton vol 3a page 1176. Mother's maiden name Nathan.



Births Jul-Sept 1935 Derek Taylor Edmonton vol 3a page 1254. Mother's maiden name Nathan.

thank you so much,



one thing, how ad where did you find them. I looked on ancestry, perhaps I am not looking properly, K

Hi Kirstie...........I found them on Ancestry........I'll try to talk you through how to search. Click on BMD indexes, then for anything later than1910 click on 'complete BMD index ranges & images 1837 - 1983',select either births, marriages, or deaths, next put your known details into the search box and click 'search' this should take you to the relevant page/pages. Hope this is clear, if not do ask for more instructions, I really don't mind. Good luck with it.........have a play around and I'm sure you will soon get used to it.

I found it first time!!! god knows where i was going wrong....ok I have been looking for a marriage of charlotte taylor james mellowship. They wuld have gotten married in the edmonton area. Charlotte was born around 1900 and there I have searched the marriage indexes from 1916 to 1930.



I have found marriages for charlotte and james's children.



I also noted down all of the charlotte taylor marriages in the right areas, and then looked for james mellowship marrying charlotte under her married name. I was thinking maybe charlotte taylor married before and wasnt a taylor when she married james...NOTHING!!!!



Charlotte would be my great great aunt if there is such a thing!



Sorry to

be a pain, but any ideas??
